Vango (2013)
“An enchanted garden on a desert island.
Just below Vango, the valley looked like the palm of a hand. Mysterious stone architecture framed the lush vegetation, and this hidden paradise was surrounded by a blue haze. The heat of the sun was causing steam to rise up from the garden soil.
Vango had never seen or dreamed of such a place. He felt as if he’d been born between two stones and all he knew about was broom, dry herbs, and the thorns of prickly pear trees. Whereas here, thriving hedgerows a...lternated with perfectly kept squares of lawn, alongside strips of vegetable garden embroidered onto the black earth, while semi-invisible buildings were tucked away beneath the palm trees. Two low towers appeared like rocks, perched over the greenery.
And yet there was no human presence on the garden’s pathways, not a single being, not a voice. There was no trace of these green-fingered pirates who knew how to make the stone burst into bloom.
Vango decided to take advantage of there being no one around by heading down to take a closer look.MoreLess
